AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
There is essentially one small waiting area, so once through security you are already at your gate.
Flights are infrequent (a few per day to Madrid and Barcelona), so double-check your onward flight actually exists rather than worrying about walking distance.
Airport staff and signage are minimal, so arrive with your boarding pass ready since automated systems are limited.
There is no dedicated international arrivals process, so if you're arriving from outside Schengen you'll need to check ahead how immigration is handled for the rare exception flight.
Bring snacks or a meal beforehand, as food and shopping options inside are very limited.

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
There is a single small terminal building with one level for check-in, security, and the gate area, so all 'transit' is on foot and takes only a few minutes. There are no shuttles, trains, or terminal transfers of any kind, and no re-screening is needed since passengers never leave a secure zone to reach another terminal.
